Lady Gaga album sales.... — Page 5

I wish I was more surprised that you didn't add anything to the conversation

For the last time, I'm not being stubborn. I simply disagree. I could easily accuse you guys of being stubborn. Pot, kettle. Had someone brought up her performance on X-Factor, or her performance with R. Kelly on SNL, or the half-brilliant/half-frustrating "Born This Way" tour, or any number of other topics, then I would agree.

But as far as this album is concerned, I don't think she is doing any wrong from a musical standpoint. And I've enjoyed the majority of her performances in this era. Are we at an understanding, or not?

And I'm glad you agree with the critics.. Your description of it reminds me more of "Born This Way", to be honest. If you choose to listen to it more, hopefully the variety and flow of the album will make more sense. Or maybe not :)

Liza if you put me in a ring.....I would win

There's only one way to know for sure.....

I'm not saying all but most would have purchased the album.....it was the MDNA Tour. And you did not automatically get the album(that would mean she sold a few million more worldwide than she did), u had to select that package (as I did)

I know, right? I giggled a bit when I realized that.

"So, I'm assuming Gaga did not, in fact, "reinvent herself"?"

By choosing not to reinvent herself she has reinvented herself.

From the official press release of the tour announcement:
"US residents ordering tickets online to a US performance will receive their choice of a digital or physical copy of Madonna's new MDNA album with every ticket purchased."

So no...I didn't choose to get the album with my ticket. The only choice I made is if I wanted a digital copy or CD. Every ticket bought in the US came with that choice automatically at no extra charge.

Eric it was a code that was given in the US so fans who purchased tickets COULD have the option to redeem it for the album. According to Billboard the cost of the album was figured in to the cost of the ticket.

Or Namo luv they had already Pre ordered the album before the tour tickets went on sale since it was the biggest Pre order album.

The last time I saw the Stones, people went to the bathroom during the two new singles, two new singles I happened to LOVE but which the audience had obviously never heard and were simply not interested in hearing.

I had the exact same experience the last time I saw B-52s when they released Funplex. They only sang TWO NUMBERS from the new album. The rest was just their greatest hits parade (and Cindy struggled painfully through Give Me Back My Man). For the first time, I was severely disappointed by them.

Oh Namo, Gaga wasn't present vocally when she recorded the new album, David Bowie was.

And who needs to keep 'Madonna' alive? i think she is doing fine, plus i think you are keeping her alive for everyone with just your multiple name checks of her in this thread before i even showed up (but you aint obsessed) Gaga on the other hand, but wait, i know that in your eyes Gaga is doing great so lets not argue about it, who cares about the enormous drop off on this album from the last, the mixed response, the flop film, the fact her single charted high mainly due to You Tube views, the huge second week drop off in the UK and the failure of the album in many markets around the world...If this was Madonna you would be screaming 'she's over etc' but not Gaga, for this to happen only FIVE YEARS in to her career, everything is totally fine. In fact i remember that after Madonna plummeted 81 percent with her album from week one to week two you jumped on her like a dog with a big gay bone, a woman who is in her 50s and been around for 30 years, but when the fresh face Gaga does the same well apparently you don't care about the charts.

PS, also loved Funplex
